Chrome/Linux--also in that case, the rarity symbol appears above the name bar (into the text box) for me, and with just the right amount of text it's possible to have the rarity get covered up by the name.

SM: What browser and OS? It looks fine for me in FF/WinXP and Chrome/WinXP. I'm not entirely surprised it breaks on some browsers if you overstuff it, but I'd like to know which.

It does indeed look like there's been a spam attack. The problem is that the cardset specifically has "Allow editing by" set to "Anyone", not just "Signed-in users". It does seem like this setting comes with a significant risk of spam attack. (I've not yet seen a spammer try to create a user account, although I should perhaps add some kinda of CAPTCHA to make that less likely.)

2011-07-17 07:52:33: jmgariepy's suggestion commented on Sabotage!

Would it be wiser if anyone could add to editable sets, but only the author of the card could edit it, to prevent sabotage?

Yay! Now my 5 split cards of bad creatures are officially in my set. I do find it funny that, while Wizards has printed a very low volume of split/flip cards, it is tackled very often by amateur designers. I can't make up my mind as to whether I'm happy Wizards has shown restraint with this concept, or annoyed that they haven't gone nuts with it...

If there's enough text, the type line covers up the fifth line of text on the unflipped side (and sometimes there's even more text that sticks out below that line--see Reanimating Licid), and the name line on the flip side covers up the first line of text there.

Done! See for example: Bushi Tenderfoot.

2011-07-15 08:59:18: Alex commented on Get emailed when things happen

I've set out a proposal on this similar request for the feature that should address both of these.

2011-07-15 08:57:56: Alex commented on "Stuff for me" notifications

So I'm envisaging:

When you create a cardset or a card, you automatically "subscribe" to it
Profile has new option "Subscribe to anything I comment on [ ]"
When something happens to something you're subscribed to (edits or comments), a "message" gets stored for you. This will
get stored on-site in a list of "responses" like StackExchange sites have, accessed via /users/1/responses.
When you browse direct to the thing you're being notified about (the cardset comments page in case of cardset comments), all messages about that item get "marked as read" and disappear from the responses page
After you visit the responses page, all messages that existed at that point are marked as read.

The second stage will add:

Profile has new option "Get emailed on responses: [immediately] [daily] [never]"
When something happens to something you've subscribed to, your message will also get sent by email if you've selected that option.

Does that sound like that'd meet what people want?

It'll take a bit of doing - at least a month, likely more - but it's a reasonable proposal.

2011-07-15 08:51:54: Alex commented on "Stuff for me" notifications

Sensible suggestion. Would take significant infrastructure, but it would make the site a lot more usable. Similar to Get emailed when things happen, and wants to share infrastructure with it.

It was requested by Patrik here.

2011-07-13 09:06:25: Alex commented on Allow Custom Symbols

If I were to move the site from Heroku's free plan to something else, I might start allowing images to be stored on-site. But since I've already gone the external hosting route for card art and whole-card images and watermarks, it'd seem odd to break from that tradition for the fourth kind of user-specifiable image.

2011-07-13 05:03:59: jmgariepy commented on Get emailed when things happen

Sounds good to me. Though, alerting people when they log into the site that some one responded on a card they commented on would be more personally useful.

2011-07-13 00:54:00: dude1818 commented on Get emailed when things happen

Make it optional, of course, but this would be so useful!

2011-07-12 19:22:54: Chris commented on Allow Custom Symbols

I'm sure you're hurting for space already, and remote hosting is probably more sensible for several reasons; but remember you can store binary files as BLOBs in a database. Paperclip plugin is the one for that, I think.
